Opposition Will Hold a Rada Session Today. VIDEO

Deputies of three opposition factions will hold a Verkhovna Rada session on Thursday morning.

This was stated during a press conference by chairman of Batkivschyna political council Oleksandr Turchynov, reports Censor.NET.

"Today we held a meeting of opposition forces leaders, and we have decided tomorrow at 10:00 am to convene a meeting of the opposition MPs in Parliament," he said.

"We also invite all the deputies, who are concerned about the fate of Ukraine to take part in the meeting", - added Turchynov.

According to him, tomorrow a decision on the future work of opposition in the Parliament will be made.

Oleksandr Turchynov said that the meeting will be held in "regard to criminal inaction of the Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada", who refused to carry out his constitutional duty and call an extraordinary session of the Parliament at the request of more than 150 people's deputies.

Previously Verkhovna Rada Speaker Volodymyr Rybak refused to convene an extraordinary session of the Parliament at the request of opposition lawmakers, despite the existence of the corresponding law.
